I was sifting through the stimulus bill today and one line struck me as rather funny, oh and I found a typo!
"None of the funds provided by this Act may be made
4 available to the State of Illinois, or any agency of the
5 State, unless (1) the use of such funds by the State is
6 approved in legislation enacted by the State after the date
7 of the enactment of this Act, or (2) Rod R. Blagojevich
8 no longer holds the office of Governor of the State of Illi9
nois."
So what if this bill were to pass during the impeachment hearing and they decided not to impeach him? No money for Illinois? I'm sure they would just pass a new provision or something to say...oh it's okay now for Illinois to get the money even though Blago is still there. Call it the "Caught scoring political point provision" or something idk.
I also noticed that this will create a special oversight committe just for this bill and then another board or something to direct the oversight committe. All of these people to be hand picked by the president. Recovery.gov will be the website to follow the money trail, should be blogger fodder for...oh...the next century.
